Coutet (Saint Emilion) Size:12x750ml mouth coating and beautifully well-balancedOpening in the glass with notes of plums, dark berry fruit, dried herbs and spices, the 2019 Coutet is medium bodied, velvety and succulent, with lively acids and powdery tannins. It's nicely balanced, seemingly picked at somewhat less advanced maturity than some of its neighbors, and will likely put on mid palate weight with a little bottle age.
